Anyone know what the penalty for breaking contract under AT&T is? Sounds like it's less than $400.

  $325 right now, IIRC.

    It depends on the number of months since you signed up. It goes down quite significantly.

      If I recall correctly, mine was $120 for ~6 months.

        Is AT&T happy to assist you in unlocking the phone for usage with other carriers?

          I'd be curious about the answer to this one as well. After my O2-UK contract was up, they were as happy as a clam to unlock my phone. All I had to do was plug into iTunes and it just said "iPhone now unlocked" and I wept with joy. I'm skeptical in the case of ATT though.

          Wish I could say, but I never asked.

          In the US it was historically "no" for the iPhone.

          Just called AT&T. It's $325 to break contract initially, and $10 less for every month it's in use. They said they won't unlock your phone after you break contract or it ends since "they don't do that for the iPhones"
